Gemma Triay  et  Delfi Brea  once again made a strong impression on the circuit Premier Padel. This Saturday, in the semi-final of the  Miami P1 , the 2nd seed imposed itself with authority against  Marta Ortega  et  Sofia Araujo , on the undisputed score of  6 / 2 6 / 1 . A successful performance, which propels them into  third consecutive final , after their titles in Gijón and Cancún.

 A first set contested... then controlled 

The match had started well for the outsiders. After a  entry station wagon signed Triay / Brea , Ortega and Araujo reacted quickly to return to  2/2 At that point, the game seemed to be even, with a steady pace and well-constructed play from both sides.

But the favorites, full of confidence, raised their level.  Gemma Triay , in particular, delivered an XXL performance,  clean, incisive, with almost no direct errors , reminding everyone why she is considered  one of the best left-handed players on the tour His solidity and effectiveness in attack put the opposing camp in trouble,  causing growing frustration for Sofia Araujo , increasingly in difficulty.

This rise in power was fatal for their adversaries:  Triay and Brea chain 5 consecutive games  to fold the first leg 6/2.

 A second one-way set 

The second act begins as the first ended:  with a clear domination of the seed 2 . Araujo, mentally affected, even confides to her coach  Seba Nerone  : "I can't be positive."

Triay and Brea, however, remain relentless.  They break at 2/1 , then unfold, taking advantage of every opposing error. Ortega and Araujo collapse:  6/1 .

 The figures that confirm the domination 

The match was  fully statistically controlled  by Triay and Brea:

  •  Only 13 unforced errors  for them (against 16 for their opponents),
  •  41 winning points i.e  almost double  of the 22 won by Ortega and Araujo.

 A dream final against the world number 1s 

Finally,  Triay and Brea will reunite with Ariana Sánchez and Paula Josemaría , the queens of the ranking. A very nice match between the two best pairs of the moment, with a special flavor:  the number 2s have already beaten the number 1s this season , in the final of  Gijon P2 .

They will try tomorrow to  win a third consecutive title , But also  dangerously return to the top of the rankings . In case of victory, Triay and Brea would each win a  10th title on the circuit Premier Padel , a symbolic milestone for the two players.

I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
